i want to bypass it when i install my new trans

whattya think...im gonna splice in some new hard lines wit compression fittings and ss tubing

Use good rubber hose, hard lines are more of a pita than they're worth.
 
I just pulled the roll off the shelf to see what it was, it's Goodyear InstaGrip. I used it on my truck and friends truck and it's holding up well. It's made to work with push lock fittings but if you want a real professional factory installed look, use crimp sleeves with standard barbed nipple fittings like you find at the hardware store.
 
I did this when I went to twins, and if I had to do it again, I would ditch the SS braided line (too expensive) for some good rubber.
 
i got alotta choicew here werkin in a factory so i might go with csome compression fitting to barb to hose...hose dont crack from vibration either

thanks

I opted for SS lines myself into a remote cooler. There's only 3 of them so it wasn't all that expensive. I suppose rubber would be a lot less but, it just doesn't look as good :-)
